CORNYN ANNOUNCES ARREST OF CHILD SUPPORT EVADER

Henry Lee Towers, Jr. arrested in Fairborn, Ohio

AUSTIN - Texas Attorney General John Cornyn today announced the arrest of Child Support
Evader Henry Lee Towers, Jr., formerly of Dallas, who owes $26,939 in child support for his
son in Paris, Texas. Towers' case is the first to be resolved since the Attorney General
announced his most recent list of the ten most wanted Child Support Evaders on January 31,
2001.

"We have now brought to justice the fifteenth Child Support Evader since I took office. My
office will continue working with law enforcement officials to send the message to all dead beat
parents that we are committed to finding them and to making them live up to their
responsibilities, or suffer the consequences," Attorney General Cornyn said.

Towers was arrested last night in the Dayton, Ohio suburb of Fairborn by officers from the
Fairborn Police Department.

On January 31, Attorney General Cornyn announced that Henry Lee Towers, Jr. had been placed
on the top ten most wanted list of Texas Child Support Evaders and asked the public to provide
information concerning the whereabouts of Towers and the other nine Evaders. Shortly after the
announcement, the Office of the Attorney General received an anonymous tip which led to
Towers' arrest.

Towers is currently being held without bond in Fairborn, Ohio. He has waived his right to an
extradition hearing and will be returned to Paris, Texas to face 61 counts of failing to pay child
support - one count for each failure to make his monthly child support payment. Towers could
face up to six months in jail for each count.

For a noncustodial parent to be placed on the Evader page, there must be a court-ordered
obligation with delinquent support in excess of $5,000 and an arrest warrant issued. The location
of parent must be unknown and the parent has not made any payments in the last 6 months. The
parent must not be involved in bankruptcy proceedings or receiving welfare benefits. To make
information public, the custodial parent must sign a confidentiality waiver and supply a picture
of the delinquent parent.
